Internship Program
How Often Do You Get the Chance to Test Your Future Job?
The main aim of our internship program is to provide master's and Ph.D. students at Danish schools with a real, hands-on opportunity to experience work as a consultant.
I was surprised to realize the level of responsibility I had in analyzing data and making conclusions that went directly into our recommendations to the client.

The eight-week internship program in Copenhagen is designed to acquaint you with McKinsey’s integrated approach to problem solving, teamwork, and client engagements, and it offers valuable work experience before graduation.
As an intern, you serve as a full-time member of a selected McKinsey project team on equal footing with the rest of the McKinsey consultants. You will work with McKinsey experts from around the world, receive day-to-day coaching from your project manager and team members, and become familiar with critical challenges that top-level clients from varying industries are facing.
Our interns are enterprising and have strong analytical and leadership skills. An internship can present the opportunity to return to McKinsey as a junior associate after graduation.
How to Apply
If you have at least one year left of your master's or Ph.D. studies, you can apply for an internship.
Your internship can take place during these periods: April 30-June 22, 2012, August 13-October 5, 2012 or January 14-March 1, 2013. If you would like to apply for a summer internship in April-June or August-October, please note that the application deadline is December 2, 2011. Applications for the January-March internship should be uploaded at least two months in advance of the internship period.
Our requirements are identical to those for a full-time position, and your application should thus include the same information. Please apply by filling in the online application form under "Apply to McKinsey" and choosing "Fellow Intern" as position.
